WIRELESS NOTIFICATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ELECTRONIC RODENT TRAPS

A remote notification electronic rodent trapping system and method is provided having a plurality of rearming electronic rodent trapping devices configured to wirelessly communicate trap information to a base station that is in communication with a cloud server. When a trap is activated by a rodent trigger it changes from a set state to a kill alert state and initiates a killing cycle. The trap waits a first time period and then sends a notification signal to the base station of trap activation which the base station forwards to the cloud server. The cloud server waits a second predetermined time period before sending a pushed notification to a remote user of the trap's kill alert state. If the trap rearms prior to expiration of the second time period, it alerts the base station which notifies the cloud server. The cloud server updates trap status to the set state and does not send a notification to the user.

Selective Action Animal Trap
20190166823 · 2019-06-06 · ·

A method and a system provide an animal trap that records digital images of animals with a camera, convolves the digital image with a kernel to create convolved feature maps that are used as input to a classifier algorithm, producing classification confidence scores that identify the animals. An algorithm categorizes the classified animal and selects an action based on the categorization. The trap has actions to deter the benign or beneficial animals and actions to detain or kill the pest animals. With this method and system, the trap is able to target pest animals with minimal harm to benign or beneficial animals.

Rodent trap and rodent management
12010985 · 2024-06-18 · ·

A rodent trap and a method of managing rodent control using a rodent trap are disclosed. The rodent trap includes a housing including a kill compartment that houses at least one electric shocking device for shocking a rodent, an entrance tunnel at a first end of the kill compartment, and a door at a second end of the kill compartment. The entrance tunnel is of a length and shape so as to prevent an operative from accidentally inserting a hand into the kill compartment. The entrance tunnel includes a sensor. The trap further includes a power source, an interface, and a printed circuit board for determining that the shocking device has triggered, that the rodent has not departed from the housing within a defined time period, and that facilitates communication sending a signal remotely.
